I remember the afternoon,
when you left me alone and blue.
Although there were sometimes
when I felt you were untrue.
I could tell by the look in your eyes.
You were telling me one of your lies.
Nothing’s ever the same and
you treat me oh so cruel.

CHORUS
I can’t cry, I can’t cry.
Couldn’t go back to how it was.
And you walked off, leaving me alone.
So many days,
hanging to love when it was over long ago.
Now I must stop, loving you again.

Tell me what do you want me to do?
Just sit and cry here alone like a fool.
When you come home and I’m all alone again.

CHORUS
There’s no hope, hanging on,
when there’s nothing left for me.
I won’t show, the pain in my broken heart.
Silently, I’ll leave the pain and the hurt all behind.

CHORUS
I can’t cry, I can’t cry.
Couldn’t go back to how it was.
And you walked off, leaving me alone.
I can’t cry, I can’t cry, when it was over long ago.
Now I must stop loving you again.
